LANDING
NORMAL LANDING
Normal landing approaches can be made with power-on or idle power
with any flap setting desired and the PROP RPM lever set at 1900. Use
of FLAPS LAND is normally preferred to minimize touchdown speed
and subsequent need for braking. For a given flap setting, surface
winds and turbulence are usually the primary factors in determining the
most comfortable approach speed.
Actual touchdown should be made with idle power and on the main
wheels first, just slightly above stall speed. The nosewheel is then
gently lowered to the runway, the POWER lever repositioned to the
BETA range, and brakes applied as required. When clear of the
runway, reposition the FUEL CONDITION lever from HIGH IDLE to
LOW IDLE. This will reduce cabin and exterior noise levels as well as
reduce braking requirements when the POWER lever is positioned
ahead of the REVERSE range. Landings on rough or soft fields are
accomplished in a similar manner except that the nosewheel is lowered
to the runway at a lower speed to prevent excessive nose gear loads.
NOTE
The use of BETA range after touchdown is recommended
to reduce brake wear. Generally, the POWER lever can be
moved aft of the IDLE gate until it contacts a spring in the
control quadrant without substantial propeller erosion from
loose debris on the runway or taxiway.
